Thanks for replying to my question! I see you are from MI, I grew up there, in Dearborn. I have been in Atlanta for 10 years and I don't really miss the weather! :)
So, what do you do? I work in commercial real estate finance for New York Life. I am the first female vice president they have had here. I have busted my butt to get where I am, especially in this male dominated industry. I have an MBA and I make really good money right now....but my babies, I miss them. My company is so "old school" they would never let me work part time, actually this job cannot be done part time. After returning from maternity leave I asked if I could work 7-4pm unless something was pressing where I needed to stay late.....and they said NO. They said someone at my level cannot work flex time. It sucks. I have an hour commute each way, so by the time I get home I have an hour with my two kids and that includes dinner and bath. I don't even see them in the morning because they are still sleeping when I leave.

Ugh, but with all that being said. I feel like it would be ridiculous to leave this career in this economy when people are dying for work. I have so many fears, like what if I leave and my husband loses his job or something. I am stressed about this everyday.

Thanks for letting me get this off my chest. I feel like I have no one to talk to about this. My friends just say, why don't you ask to work from home or something. But it is not an option.
